Adaptive cruise control* - managing
speed
The adaptive cruise control (p. 199) (ACC –
Adaptive Cruise Control) helps the driver
maintain a safe distance from the vehicle
ahead.
To enable cruise control:
•
Press the steering wheel button
- a
similar WHITE symbol is illuminated in the
combined instrument panel (p. 212)
which shows that the cruise control is in
standby mode (p. 204).
To activate cruise control:
•
At the required speed - press the steering
wheel button
or .
> The current speed is stored in the mem-
ory, the combined instrument panel
shows a "magnifying glass" around the
selected speed for a second or so and its
marking changes from WHITE to GREEN.
When this symbol changes colour
from WHITE to GREEN, the cruise
control is active and the car main-
tains the stored speed.
Only when the symbol shows
an image of another vehicle
is the distance to the vehicle
in front controlled by the
cruise control.
At the same time a speed
range is marked:
• the higher speed with
GREEN marking is the pre-
programmed speed
• the lower speed is the
speed of the car in front.
Changing the speed
To change the stored speed:
•
Adjust with short presses on
or -
every press gives +/- 5 km/h. The last
presses made are stored in the memory.
If speed is increased using the accelera-
tor pedal prior to pressing the
/ but-
ton, then it is the car's current speed
when the button is pressed that is stored
in the cruise control.
To adjust +/- 1 km/h:
•
Hold down the button and release it at
the required speed.
NOTE
If any of the Cruise Control buttons are
held depressed for several minutes then it
is blocked and deactivated. To be able to
reactivate Cruise Control, the car must be
stopped and the engine restarted.
In certain situations, cruise control cannot
be activated. In this case, the combined
instrument panel (p. 212) shows
Cruise
control Unavailable.
